According to Spain's El Mondo newspaper, the unnamed man lost consciousness after being struck by lightning in the groin on Thursday night, with the bolt travelling down his leg and striking the ground.

His son called paramedics who later treated him for burns to the scrotum and feet at the scene in Madrid's suburb Tres Cantos.

He was then taken to Madrid’s Hospital de la Paz where tests showed his heart and brain functions were not affected by the lightning strike.

Let me put this in terms you people can understand:
My Little Pony: Friendship is magic has about as much to do with the old My Little Pony cartoon as the new Battlestar Galactica has to do with the old.

Hmmm? It's not. That's the new show's titlecard. It was just general pony bashing. It just seems sometimes that the people that hate the show and its fans are more fanatical than those who love it. Most of that stems from preconceived notions based on the old show, and antiquated gender stereotypes. I'm going to hazard a guess and say that most brony haters have never actually watched the show. That's all I was trying to say.

I don't know how you'd categorize me, I've only seen clips of the stuff (both shows) and the totally overwhelming amount of ponies around; in threads, as avatars and in sigs (not here of course) and I see nothing wrong with any new religion that I don't also see in the old ones.
